Answer to Question 1

 Some evidence also exists that siblings may influence behavior too; research shows that if one sibling is a delinquent there is a significant likelihood that his brother or sister will engage in delinquent behaviors.
 If one of these siblings takes drugs and engages in delinquent behavior, so too will his brother or sister.
 Siblings who live in the same environment are influenced by similar social and economic factors; it is not surprising that their behavior is similar.
 Deviance is genetically determined, and the traits that cause one sibling to engage in delinquency are shared by his or her brother or sister.
 Deviant siblings grow closer because of shared interests. It is possible that the relationship is due to personal interactions: Older siblings are imitated by younger siblings.
 One of the most common forms of child abuse involves siblings. It is possible that deviant sibs are the ones most likely to abuse family members. Research shows that sibling violence is significantly related to substance use, delinquency, and aggression.
 Student view will vary.
